The Garleans are coming from a whole different continent. They had nothing to do with Doma, Ala Mhigo or other countries we know of. So I am not sure where the information is coming from, that they are from the same place? Also in modern era it would be bad if someone tries to conquer a free state. That surely would create another war. (And war is always bad)
